Dined here on a Saturday at around 4pm, and they were not busy at all. We were seated immediately and it took about 5 minutes before or waitress tended to us. The ambiance of the restaurant was nice. The decor is nice and the natural lighting compliments it very well. Our waitress Brittney was great. She was friendly and very conversational. Complimentary chips and salsa were brought out and the chips were warm and salsa was good. I ordered the Salsa sampler (Guac, Pineapple, Salsa Brava) as an appetizer and it was good the Salsa Brava was more of a paste and not a salsa but it went great with my burrito. Which was the Spicy with the Birria Beef and it was delicious. Overall I enjoyed the restaurant and would highly recommend it.

This place is amazing! Food was great, as well as the atmosphere and our service. We got the Chimichanga and the Loco Burrito with steak added. The Loco burrito is huge, smothered in queso, and amazing. Will definitely visit again if in Chattanooga!

The ambiance here is calm but fun. My wife and I enjoyed Valentine's Day here. I got the El Hipster, and she had the sangria. Both were very good. A lot of restaurants around Chattanooga make drinks wrong, but Mezcla knows how to mix drinks. We started with the bean dip, which was delicious. She really enjoyed her shrimp tacos, which were a bit spicier than she likes, but she said they were very good. I had the burrito loco and loved it. We will definitely be back.

Got the Philly Burrito and it was delicious! Definitely recommend it. A touch of spice but not too strong. The chips were perfect too!

Great birria tacos! Some of the drinks are really interesting but the two cocktails we ordered were waaayy too sweet for us. Ambiance is a touch cheesy. Really personable and helpful bartenders. Would return. Edit: This is by far our fav mexican place in Chattanoga! In additional to the amazing birria tacos, we've also tried and LOVED the philly cheesesteak burrito, all of the soups, the enchillada suizas, and if you're looking for something lighter, the fish tacos are fresh and spicy! Ugh this is making me hungry. It's hard to for us to try anything new because these are all sooo good. PS - Cocktails are really really good (we order them with a bit less sweetness now :D).
